CROCHET  APPLIQUE.  49 


CROCHET  APPLIQUE. 


What  an  allegory  of  human  life  is  Crochet!  How  seldom 
do  we  work  according  to  our  designs  ! The  pattern  to  be 
worked  out  depends  far  more  on  the  will  and  ingenuity  of 
others ; and  has  it  not  been  the  subject  of  remark,  from  age 
to  age,  how  little  man’s  actions  depend  upon  himself — how 
much  he  is  the  creature  of  circumstances,  which,  whether 
great  or  small,  it  forms  the  principal  occupation  of  life  to 
take  wise, advantage  of,  and  interweave,  so  as  to  benefit  our- 
selvesN^nd  others  ? And  of  what  does  Crochet  consist,  but 
in  interweaving  threads  to  the  best  advantage  for  use  and 
pleasure  ? Again,  the  materials  for  our  work  are  not  left 
to  our  own  choice,  and  strict  directions  are  to  be  followed, 
if  we  would  not  have  it  thrown  into  confusion  and  its 
beauty  spoilt.  And  is  it  not  so  in  life?  In  its  different 
stages  and  stations,  different  parts  are  assigned  to  us,  the 
means  and  the  directions  for  fulfilling  each  are  different,  yet 
clearly  laid  down.  As  in  Crochet  patterns,  so  in  life ; some 
are  complicated,  some  very  simple ; some  short,  some  long ; 
some  more  ornamental  than  useful ; some  in  coarse  mate- 
rial, some  in  fine.  And  have  not  the  ancients  represented 
these  distinctions  in  their  idea  of  the  web  of  life,  represent- 
ing it  as  of  differing  hue  and  value  ? How  seldom  can  we 
trace  the  influence  of  each  new  stitch  interwoven  with  the 
last,  and  the  connexion  of  the  different  parts,  but  must 
content  ourselves  with  blindly  working,  till  we  see  the 
pattern  reveal  itself  in  what  we  have  thus  done ; and  it  is 
only  in  looking  hack  upon  life  that  the  immediate  connexion 
of  our  actions,  and  their  relation,  as  a whole,  is  to  be  per- 
ceived ; and  happy  the  person,  who,  having  worked  care-

fully  according  to  the  directions,  in  looking  hack  sees  no  flaw 
in  the  work,  and  has  made  no  false  stitch  to  spoil  the  pattern, 
and  impede,  if  not  stop,  his  onward  progress ; and  who 
knows  not  the  danger  of  one  false  step  in  life,  unwarily 
taken,  perhaps  hampering  all  future  efibrts,  and  leaving  its 
disfigurement  on  years  otherwise  well  and  wisely  spent. 
Lastly,  how  impossible  is  it  to  anticipate  events  and  their 
consequences  ! The  future  can  only  be  known  by  passing 
the  present  in  patience;  and  in  Crochet,  how  impossible  it  is 
to  realise  the  efiects  to  he  produced,  hut  by  patiently  going 
through  the  appointed  intermediate  work !

MUSIC  AND  MEMORY. 


Music;  when  soft  voices  die. 

Vibrates  in  the  memory  ; 

Odours,  when  sweet  violets  sicken. 

Live  within  the  sense  they  thicken. 

Rose-leaves,  when  the  rose  is  dead. 

Are  heaped  for  the  beloved’s  bed ; 

And  so  thy  thoughts,  when  thou  art  gone. 
Love  itself  shall  slumber  on. 

Beatrice. 


Invention  is  the  talent  of  youth  and  judgment  of  age ; so 
that  our  judgment  grows  harder  to  please  when  we  have 
fewer  things  to  oifer  it ; this  goes  through  the  whole  com- 
merce of  life.  When  we  are  old,  our  friends  find  it  diificult 
to  please  us,  and  are  less  concerned  whether  we  be  pleased 
or  not. — Swift.
